    Default Tribute to Hoshitombo 8000 V2

    I made this razor for a Hungarian custom order. My customer asked a standard 70mm cutting edge and some changes of the materials. I hope you will like it.

    • O1 tool steel hardened to HRC 61
    • 13/16" (21mm) wide blade
    • 70mm cutting edge
    • Blacked and full polished blade
    • Quarter hollow grind
    • Buffalo horn scales with dotted nickel-silver inlays
    • Buffalo horn wedge with nickel-silver sheets
    • Phosphor-Bronze pivot bearing washers
    • Nickel-silver wedge/spacer pin with stainless steel washers
    • Adjustable stainless steel pivot pins
